Description


It didn't seem to matter what happened at the teen treatment center. The state of Utah always gave it another chance. Death. Allegations of abuse. Criminal charges. Bizarre punishments. Whistleblowers coming forward. Each time, the place got a pass. A team of reporters from three news organizations has spent the last year digging into the untold stories of Utah's massive teen treatment industry. Some 20,000 teenagers facing depression, delinquency and other problems have been sent there from every state in the country over the last six years. Sent Away investigates how the government failed to keep all those kids safe — through the voices and stories of the teens who lived it.

Jeeeeeez. This podcast subject is absolutely horrifying. The people involved in running these places are terrifying, evil! Thank you to the reporters for exposing them, for what it's worth.

I can’t believe this lady is a certified counselor! And I can’t believe anyone would hire her as a counselor!

maybe male therapists are not the best choice for "working with" troubled female teens.
